Question 1

Does this create any problems going through airport security because of the resemblance to a pocket knife?

Accepted Answer

Had TSA in both Denver and in Houston both hassle me over it.  On the X-ray it does look like a folded up pocket knife as you would suspect.  Trick is to splay the keys out wards so that they can see what it is on x-ray if you have it in your bag and even then they've pulled me aside for a bag check.

Question 2

I have 2 large remotes for push button start cars.  Will they both fit on the outside loop?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all new KeySmarts have 1 loop piece included to attach any large car keys, fobs, or accessories (loop piece will use up 1 key slot when assembled onto your KeySmart.) Should there be a need for greater capacity, additional loop pieces may be purchased separately here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B011LNX0NS

Question 3

Can you operate this one handed? (open out a key with one hand)

Accepted Answer

Hey Paul. If the key is one of the outer keys, it is very easy to open that key with one hand. Otherwise, it is a little more difficult, but definitely do able. I should note though that I am ambidextrous and have very good dexterity with my hands.

Question 4

How tough is the paint coating on it, from 1 to 10?

Accepted Answer

I have one of the original Key Smart units. I bought it in September 2015 and it is carried every day. Mine has some brassing on the edges and some wear on one face. I would call that quite durable, perhaps an 8 or 9 (out of 10). It looks like a bit of kit that is well-loved and well-used. In my book, that is OK. FWIW, my EDC blades have similar wear. It just proves they get used. ;)
